🧠 Judgment is a Trainable Skill
Contrary to traditional organizational thinking, judgment isn't something you either have or don't have - it's a skill that can be developed and improved through training.
Research shows that the human brain continues to develop well beyond age 18, challenging the old belief that learning is limited to early years. This means adults can still develop better decision-making abilities and judgment through deliberate practice.
Key takeaway: Organizations that understand this principle can invest in developing their people's judgment rather than assuming it's a fixed trait. What we once thought was innate talent is actually a learnable capability.
